RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I am married and have one teenage son. I have two pets, Hershey and Maitai. I am a 3rd year college student trying to obtain a degree in education. I want to teach children with learning disabilites. I like to cook mostly on holidays. My pet peeves are recipes that do not explain directions well. Us semi-amateur chefs need all the explanations we can get lol. One of my favorite things to do is make dishes that knock the socks off my family and friends.
